The SECRET to cooking with STAINLESS steel!
I bought this griddle to replace a non-stick one that we have owned for years. My husband had heard so many things about the dangers of the chemical coatings entering food that he really wanted us to get rid of all our pots and pans and go to something "safer".
I had to admit that all my "coated" pans had deteriorated and been replaced many times because the...

Received damaged lid
The griddle is ok - used it once. But, the glass lid I received had three dents on the metal rim of the lid. I do not believe this was done in shipping - it was fairly well wrapped. I believe this was sent out by the company in this condition. It was on sale and I believe i received a returned griddle from another customer. I will keep the griddle and use it - but, i...

The SECRET to cooking with STAINLESS steel!, January 3, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
I bought this griddle to replace a non-stick one that we have owned for years. My husband had heard so many things about the dangers of the chemical coatings entering food that he really wanted us to get rid of all our pots and pans and go to something "safer".
I had to admit that all my "coated" pans had deteriorated and been replaced many times because the coating just does not last....So, we decided to try stainless steel, even though my prior experiences with it years ago had meant sticky surfaces, uneven cooking and hard to clean.
The CHEF'S SECRET is a great, heavy-duty stainless griddle that is actually easy to clean (with a brillo or scrubber) and it cooks even better than the pans I have used in the past, including the non-sticks. You do have to have a good coating before cooking to avoid sticking, but we like olive oil and that seems to work well in addition to being good for you.
It has a nice heft to it and solid construction and I love having a lid available, particularly a glass one to keep an eye on the food.
I HIGHLY recommend this griddle for its abilities, construction and style!

Very Good Choice, May 4, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
I'm not a fan of non-stick cookware or aluminum cookware. So the choices for pancakes are limited to stainless steel or cast-iron. I looked into purchasing a cast-iron griddle at a local store. It was a really nice piece. However, I didn't feel confident that I'd have the time to keep the iron "seasoned" to prevent it from rusting. Since this unit was double the price of the cast-iron griddle, I'd been eying it for a while, but hesitant to pull the trigger. Well I finally did.
First thing I noticed when I opened the box, is that this unit is very heavy, and seems well constructed. The instructions say to wash it before using, so I had to wait a day before trying it. I used cooking spray about 2 times for 15+ pancakes. It heats evenly on the stove and I was able to fit 3 pancakes at a time with ease. I was using a 12 inch fry pan before which only allowed one pancake at a time. Cleanup required steel wool, but not much elbow grease. I am definitely pleased with this purchase.

The Best, April 2, 2010
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
OMG, I have been trying to hold off on righting a review because I appreciate review from people who have really spent some time using the product to find out long term how they hold up. I bought in Jan. 2010 and love it!!! I cannot say enough good about it. Perhaps a little large for some people but that doesn't bother me at all. I cook one person meals on it all the time and like knowing I have room to cook more for company. It never sticks, everything cooks fast and even, clean up is a breeze. Have made eggs, pancakes, chicken, stir fry and grilled cheese on it. It is beautiful, substantial and versatile. Not one complaint. This will last a lifetime and then some. Just what I wanted, something to have and I need never look for another ever. I would give as gift (but if smaller size available that would be more appropriate for some). Love It!!!!!

Great Griddle, December 26, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
We have only owned this griddle for a couple of days, but I can already tell that it's going to be a more or less permanent fixture on our stove. It's nice and heavy, so it heats up evenly. It's shallow enough that you can use your spatula easily, even near the edges, and it has enough room for three normal size pancakes. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this item.

Stainless steel griddle, December 25, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
It took a while to figure out how to cook pancakes on this griddle but now it is good product, for a good price. We spray it with high temperature Pam, although other products may do as well, and give it a long warm up at medium heat. After that we get good cakes and fairly easy clean up. If you over heat it clean up is a tough go.

Excellent Griddle, March 16, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
I received this griddle as a gift, and I have never been more pleased. It heats more evenly than any other griddle on the market--you can literally use every inch of space and expect the same results, even if your burner is not exactly the same size as the griddle. It also cleans up beautifully and easily. I have made pancakes and french toast so far. I highly recommend this griddle; it is well worth the price.
The handles do get just a little hot after awhile, so be careful. Also, unlike with other pans that "radiate" heat that you can feel with your hand, this pan will not "feel" hot--and it will heat up quickly--so test with a little water first or it will get too hot on you.

chiefs secrete stainles steel griddle, February 20, 2009
This review is from: Chef's Secret 5-Ply Stainless-Steel Griddle with Glass Lid (Kitchen)
Oh my gosh, this is the best I have ever used. I run a house for elderly ladies and I cook 3 meals a day. This griddle is so great, not only does it cook everything, evenly and quickly, but with the heat off and the lid on it keeps the food warm. I recommend it to everyone.

Great Cookware, February 9, 2008
If you love cooking with stainless and you are looking for a great griddle, this is definitely the one. Came with a glass lid to use as well. Heats evenly, very durable, and works great for heaty breakfasts of pancakes, sausage, and eggs.
